Okay do not kill me! I have not been hiding on a lost island somewhere in the Pacific. NOO I was at my first year in high school and with a very strenuous school program. I do not get home until about 4:30 due to the fact that I am the very happy manager of my school's step team. Furthermore I do not get much computer time without involving homework. Any free time I have left over I spend with my friends. But I will be updating more now that I have it more under control. I did quote a picturewhich I marked, and I will not claim any rights to that quote.


Naraku laughed as Kurama arrived only to disappear in a cloud of miasma. The last thing Kurama saw before the tentacle knocked him away was Kagome's prone body. He fell through a weak piece of ground surrounding a river as he plummeted to the water's torrents. Thrown from one rock to another Kurama was being brutally beat by the water's heavy presence as the river led to a waterfall. The only thing that rung in his anguished soul was Kagome's prone figureā€¦"Man, this sucks. We have lost Kagome and Kurama in one night," Kuwabara sulked while Yukina tended to his bite wounds, " All I did to help was get attacked by that rabid squirrel again. My life sucks."

"I have known that all along but it took you a while to figure it out." Hiei smirked.

"Well you know what Shorty? I am going to punch your face in." Kuwabara fumed as Yukina patted his arm to calm him down. Hiei turned to jump away to a tree.

"I may be short but you're ugly. I can grow." He vanished in a black flash. (Author note: This is the quote. I found a picture that says this and I just HAD to use it.) Yukina decided this was a good time to distract Kuwabara from his apparent anger.

"Demo, Kuwabara I remember that I need your help getting firewood." She batted her long lashes at him. He put on a goofy grin and offered his arm and they walked into the woods in the opposite direction than Hiei went.

'Dame. Kurama, you're such a baka. Why did you let yourself get close to that girl? Nothing good ever happens when you and Youko let someone in.' Hiei thought angrily. He sliced tree after tree until he met an awesome cliff with a sword indent in it.


It was dark now, as he was washed upon a sandy ledge. He heard a high pitch squeal of a young girl begging and he felt himself being pulled up. Kurama mumbled something incoherent from his world of dreams and darkness as he was laid on a soft blanket. The high pitch voice was near again, cheerfully chattering to his still figure. The voice's body lifted up his head and fed him a broth and put cool bandages on his wounds but other than he was alone.

On the third day, Kurama was conscious enough to open his eyes weakly to look at his savoir, who to Kurama's surprise was a young girl. She smiled brightly as she offered some water, which he gratefully drank.

"Pretty lady, Rin's name is Rin, what's your name?" She asked with a childish curiosity. He blushed a deep red and smiled as politely as he could. "My name is Shuichi Minamino but you can call me Kurama. Did you pull me out of the water?" He could not have hid the incredulous expression from forming on his face.

"Iie, that was Sesshoumaru-sama's doing. Rin is Sesshoumaru-sama's ward and Rin went to pick flowers by the river and Rin found you! Gomen, Rin thought you were a lady 'cause you were so pretty." She grinned with that same childish expression. Kurama noticed a tall white haired demon that had the markings of lord ship on his skin. Kurama bowed his head respectfully towards the demon that nodded back.

"You heal pretty fast for a human or is there more to you than your appearance applies." He asked with a raised eyebrow. Kurama grimaced sheepishly. "Anyhow, tomorrow you should be able to walk around at the rate you are healing." He stood up to leave but Kurama weak voice called.

"Have you seen a hanyou by the name of Inuyasha or Naraku? It is imperative that I must find either one of them." The aura became cold as the killing perfection turned around.

"What business do you have with the spider and my idiot half brother?" His voice clipping Kurama's sensitive ears at a low growl. He turned to face the young kitsune as Rin nervously glanced between the two men as she mumbled to speak.

"Gomen, I did not realize you were half siblings." Kurama stammered to reply.

"Why do you want to meet dog-face? He's so mean and always grumpy and he's no fun at all." Rin pouted at Sesshoumaru to calm down. She flashed a smile at Kurama to reassure the man. She sighed happily as Sesshoumaru's eyes lost that predatory gleam.

"We have not seen or heard from either of the two you mentioned. Inform this Sesshoumaru why you want to meet those two despicable fools?" He seemed to grit his teeth at the phrase.

"You see, my friends and I were assigned to kill Naraku by our boss, Koemna. But Inuyasha kidnapped Kagome and assisted Naraku. Therefore, he is now our enemy." Kurama's heavy-heartedly answered. Sesshoumaru had many questions lined up in his head but decided against them. Rin pat him on the back to comfort the grieving kitsune. " I will take my leave Lord Sesshoumaru," Kurama bowed, " Take care Rin." She giggled as he limped away down path.

"Kagome, where are you?" Kurama whispered looking up to the sky. He sighed and struggled up a hill that just seemed to be there to slow him down.

'We need to find her, I'll be damned if the only person who's close enough to trust other than Hiei and Kuronue dies.' Youko sadly said. 'I hope we find her too, Youko.'


Inuyasha struggled against the floods of demons surrounding his spiritual essence, the filth were thriving off his life force. He could still feel her warm body pressed against his own. He let out a possessive growl as Kagome's blue eyes imagined their way into his mind.

"Now Inuyasha, we will have none of that," Naraku sneered as he pulled the once hanyou out of his body, "you will learn obedience like Kagura and Kanna did. Through pain." He squeezed Inuyasha's heart as Inuyasha fell to the ground coughing up crimson life. Naraku dragged in a limp body torn with burns and lacerations. He pushed the dainty face towards Inuyasha as he cried out.

'Oh, Kagome what was I thinking?'

I swear I will update and I have a sequel for the Birthday Joke since mostly everyone wanted one. Kurai out.
